Ashburn chiropractic patients realize that visiting their chiropractor at Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn is valuable. Their back pain and neck pain reduces. Ashburn chiropractic patients feel better when they leave Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn. A benefit Ashburn chiropractic patients may not necessarily realize because they are chiropractic patients already is that seeing a chiropractor lowers the odds of back surgery. A recent report noted that there is a “very strong association” between back surgery and the first healthcare provider consulted for the back pain issue. 42.7% of workers who saw a surgeon|first consulted a surgeon first underwent surgery while only 1.5% of those who consulted a chiropractor first had back surgery. (1) Plus, the chiropractic adjustment works wonders on the autonomic nervous system. This tie between the autonomic nervous system and the adjustment is documented particularly for a tension-type headache sufferer with major depression whose relief is outlined in a new published case report. (2) For a depressed Ashburn back pain patient, any relief from chiropractic care is most welcome!

Listen to this PODCAST with Dr. Kevin Keyes on The Back Doctor’s Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson about a patient who was thinking about back surgery when she came to see him for her back pain and discovered relief with his chiropractic care using the Cox® Technic System.
